    By far my favorite Carvel ! Aside from all the typical Carvel flavors, you can also find many unique flavors here. My favorite is lychee and honey dew. They have different flavors time to time and honestly no other Carvel can compare. It makes birthdays so much more special. Every time we get a cake here someone would complement and ask where the cake is from. The many times I've stopped by the staffs were very friendly. Once you walk in they would ask if you want to try any flavors. This is a small store which don't have seating more so it's like you grab and go!

    Weighs 2 1/2 oz - should be 3.3 oz per the label!

    THEY ARE STEALING YOUR MONEY!! I ordered delivery of their six pack flying saucers. As soon as it arrived, I could see that they were terribly skimpy. I took out my scale and I weighed each one. They were each less than 2 1/2 ounces. The package says they should be 3.3 ounces weight. This is just plain robbery. I gave this one star but if I could give it a zero, I would.

    I am not sure what I received... I spend 79$ (flavor changed to orange with +3 extra) for a large sheet ice cream. However, the ice cream cake I received is basically a entire vanilla ice cream, as you all can see from the picture. I am not sure what this is. The layer is not evenly in half as the photos are showing. First it is just a very thin layer and there is barely any cookie and cream (Oreos). I am sure I'm not blind or dumb. Why would this small little layer be 3$ extra. I always purchased from carvel, got matcha and red bean 2x. The first time, matcha is very thin layer, and second time, I made sure to ask and they made it slightly better. This time, I wanted to change the other flavor to matcha and I was told it is 10$. I brought cookie and cream cake from carvel before and it was not like this, there are a lot more cookie, I based received entire vanilla cake. I'm not sure if you would see this but ok... this is not something that should be done

    My mint chocolate chip ice cream was yummy. I can't believe this was only $4. Reasonably priced in my opinion. I'm definitely going to visit this place again. They also have red bean ice cream which is my favorite. Can't wait to try it.

    When you arrive, you'll notice that this Carvel is located on the same block as Baskin Robbins. I thought to myself does that even make sense for Carvel to open up here? Of course it does if the people want legit ice cream and BR fails to deliver. Not only was the entire Carvel staff extremely friendly but they were quick with our orders. I went with my co workers after dinner next door (group of 6) on a really busy night and we all received our orders in about 5 minutes total. The crew behind the counter were like hard working oompa loompas making delicious treats for us to enjoy. I found out that the owner actually makes everything in the back. Their ice cream and even their dope Ice cream cakes are made and decorated inhouse too! They take pride in what they do and it shows in their staffs attitude and quality of their products. I ordered the oreo shake and damn was it amazing. The only thing I regret was that I got a medium and I finished it all. The cup was wayy bigger than I expected it to be, and felt some hatred towards myself for lacking self control and inhaling it. But then pat myself on the back for ordering this because I love oreos and it had oreo chunks in it too, proving they actually use real ingredients. They're open late, until 11pm. Perfect for those after dinner desserts on date nights. Tip : Make date nights Wednesdays! Buy one Sundae get one Free! You can both have your own :)

    Came here during the 18th ave feast as they had beer pong set outside for prizes which was pretty cool even though I lost terribly, but in the end I won because I still gave them my money and got icecream! I love how they now carry biscoff cookie soft serve and also biscoff sundae dasher which is this huge sundae that can only be described by staring at the enormous sign in front of the store advertising it! The guy that served me was really sweet and if it even matters the guy at the register was PURE EYE CANDY! Do attractive people like that exist anymore if so carvel found him! He was very pleasant and everyone was very respectful and kind. I will be back!! I don't know if they have it all year round but for the feast they had that famous waffle fish cone thing which was pretty cool !

    Another unusually warm day in February. I strolled into this Brooklyn location of Carvel early in the afternoon. With temps climbing up to 70 degrees, birds chirping in the trees and people walking their dogs and taking their kids out of school early you'd think this was May. They have both soft serve ice cream as well as hard scooped ice cream, also they sell their very own ice cream saucer sandwiches as well as custom made birthday ice cream cakes. Today I went with the Pistachio soft serve in a cone. It had that classic Pistachio nuttiness to it, also the texture was smooth and really creamy. Here's hoping this warm winter lasts a bit longer!!

    I had such a wonderful experience at this Carvel location! Boyfriend and I were in search for some ice cream, and stumbled upon Carvel. The workers here were super friendly and helped my bf choose a flavor. I went for the classic vanilla and chocolate combo. However, my boyfriend felt a bit more exotic and chose the lychee, which he absolutely loved!

    Probably the best looking Carvel I've ever seen. Very modernized and clean. The service was amazing and the staff is really kind. And as for the ice cream, I mean does it really get any better than Carvel? Would I recommend this place? To all my friends in Brooklyn!! :)

    Nutella and Oreo soft serve twist with crunchies.
    Sweenly L.

    Classic ice cream with a twist *wink. I got a Nutella/Oreo soft serve twist. The flavors blended very well. Sometimes the Nutella taste would peak/overpower the Oreo and really come out. That said, I didn't taste the Oreo as much. But the texture was soft and creamy and exactly what I was looking for that day. Free topping for checking in on Yelp! Yay crunchies!!! Really friendly service. I can't wait to come back and try their new flavor next month :)

    Custom red bean and green tea cake. Must try!

    This is probably the cleanest and neatest Carvel I've ever been to. What sets this Carvel different from others is the fact they not only have vanilla and chocolate soft serve, but they have 2 additional flavors as well depending on the month. This month, there was oreo and pistachio. Also, the cakes are not limited to just the basic squares, circles and whales but there are various decorated cakes. At the time I went, they had a minion which looked spot on and ready to get consumed by a kids birthday party. The hard working owners are there day in and day out so stop by for great ice cream and customer service.

    Green Tea Thai Tea Red Bean Lychee Black Sesame These are all the flavors you should try, whether it's a soft serve in a cup or cone, scoop, pint, sandwiched between two chocolate cookies, etc. These Asian flavors were a surprise for me to find at a Carvel, but it happened and I'm glad it did. The only problem is that they don't have their "Asian inspired" flavors via soft serve all the time - so you have to ask when they'll be available. They give you samples here if you're not sure which flavors you should get. Two scoops in a cone = around $4.65

    I needed a cake for my sisters birthday and walked into Carvel, wow was I surprised! The staff was super helpful, attentive and waited on me hand and foot! They had many different varieties of soft serve including green tea, strawberry, Oreo and my all time favorite coffee! I will definitely be returning for all my ice cream needs!!

    I ordered this cake for my daughter's 100-day celebration and honestly, it was a huge…read moredisappointment. The cake looked nice, but that's where it ended. There was absolutely no flavor--just tasted like straight butter and sugar. I know what pandan taste like and it wasn't it. I paid extra for pandan flavor, and honestly there was zero trace of it. I could tell she used green dye, It literally tasted like a bland, buttery sugar cookie cake. Texture-wise, it was just as bad. It wasn't moist at all and didn't even hold up properly even before cutting--it just fell apart. It looks like crumbled rocks. The cake was so dry! For the price, I expected much better quality. Communication was another major issue. There's no phone number, only email, which already felt off. Responses were slow and unhelpful, making the whole process feel unprofessional and honestly a bit sketchy. What kind of business only communicates through email? Overall, I'm highly disappointed. Definitely not worth the money. Save yourself the frustration and look elsewhere--this is a perfect example of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. I truly wanted to support her small business but it didn't turn out the way I expected. This business overpromise and under deliver. Don't say you can make a pandan cake when you clearly don't have the proper ingredients. Could been honest to begin with but instead you dug a hole and lied by using green dye. Never again am I supporting this small home business I rather go to an actual LLC.

    Big Cake Mom is AMAZING! Lisa is truly a talented baker! She's been my go-to baker whenever I…read moreneeded a delicious and exceptional cake for special occasions! Lisa has baked for both of my children's first birthday parties and other bdays for years! Lisa nails the design EVERY TIME! She always listens to what I want and delivers each and every time. Her designs are very classy and current and simply beautiful. She's made customizing cakes so easy and stress-free for me over the years. Our guests were always so impressed by her cake designs and complimented how unique and yummy the cakes we got. Separately, I very much appreciate the unique flavors (green tea, ube, to name a few) that Lisa offers! Every time I try something new, it immediately becomes my new favorite. Her cakes are always super moist and delicious. I would strongly recommend Big Cake Mom to anyone who wants a beautiful and delicious custom-made cake.
